Hey everyone for this review I take a look at Vol 2 for this Atari Flashback Classic collection for the Playstation 4 Games in this collection are ARCADE TITLES …
Is Vanguard in that selection? It’s okay if it isn’t, but it would be awesome if it were in either Flashback. 😇
The trophy list for Volume 2 is absolutely ridiculous.
You have to be really good to even stand a chance at some of those trophies. I would say in ways it is more difficult than Super Meat Boy.
Demon attack was my favorite. had great graphics for the 2600 as well
You saved me 20 bucks, thanks.
I honestly think these will be rare one day
I'm not sure if these following games are on either Volume, but it seems like every Atari related collection game that comes out (even those Atari Flashback plug & play consoles) leaves out some of my childhood favorites. Such as Dig Dug, Kangaroo, Phoenix, Popeye, Sky Skipper, Donkey Kong, Mario Bros., Q-Bert, (Frogger?), and so on. Probably all for copyright/trademark reasons. At least my # 1 childhood favorite is on most collections (Adventure). Sadly, as much as I loved the Atari 2600 back in the day, I just can't tolerate these games in this day and age. I get bored in a few minutes. I only buy these for the nostalgia.
wish it had Boulder Dash
Seems like no matter the format, whenever Atari releases these flashback games, they never include the classics like Pit-Fall and Jungle Hunt. Or even how about some Mrs Pac-Man, Dig-Dug, or Donkey Kong Jr??? I had all of those games on Atari… Krull was another classic on the 2600… I could go on and on…
Absolutely Love Crystal Castles ! Always have. Asteroids and Joust are great too ! Cartridges were 13.99 in the mid 80's. So if you look at it that way you're getting your money's worth. Keep in mind this was primo of it's time.
Does this have Custer's Revenge?
Glad you did these reviews. Almost bought both games, but in my opinion, Crystal Castles just wouldn't be worth me spending $20-$40 on. Sadly, that would've been my only reason for buying these games. I think probably already spent that amount at the arcade growing up, not worth doing it again. Definitely lacked in the titles dept, for sure. Thank you for doing these vidz.
Surprisingly I've enjoyed both vol 1 & vol 2 a lot and I never played much Atari! So getting to try a lot of these games for the first time was fun. It would be cool if we eventually got an Atari Flashback collection volume 3 with 50-55 more games including games like Space Invaders , Frogger some of the more well known titles ect ect , maybe throw in a few cheesy games like Halloween & Texas Chainsaw massacre instead of stuff like basic math. X)
Super Cobra was my favourite 2600 game
they need one for Intellivision. Super Slam Dunk Basketball, with all the players. Whodini Watts is MAgic Johnson, Larry Hawk as Larry Bird, Boards Mosar is Moses Malone. Dave Williams is Michael Jordan. Beanpole Bowen is KAreem Abdul JAbbar.
Major Havok? Sold!!!
the power of the ps4. ffs
2 diferent volumes for this?????
Have both and they are great. Just wish they could put Defender on. Maybe next volume. I wish they would come out with Activision classics. I WOULD BUY THAT IN A SECOND !
For some reason, I like the 2600 version of Crystal Castles more than the arcade version.
No Pitfall 2? 🙁
Hi – thanks for the reviews, these volumes only just came out in Europe believe it or not (took long enough!).
I just wanted to ask if I could please use some of your footage of the games here for a video I'm putting together? If so I'll give you a credit in the video's description. No problem if not of course!
Gravitar is an incredible game. No Berzerk ?
Worth mentioning that the DS4 trackpad does a pretty good impression of a trackball. Even has some momentum so a flick will send your player across the screen. Works well as a paddle in Pong and Warlords etc. Nice attention to detail.
Can you play multi-player without ps plus?
Someone please answer, what was the game at 2:34? Been trying to find that game in particular for years
Question.. Ive been reading reviews online saying the games list is reversed meaning Vol 1 games are actually on volume 2 etc.. So did you download from PSN or do you have the disc. And if you did download are the games still reversed? I really want the football games but I don't want to buy the wrong volume through PSN.
They should have just put all 100 games on one disc for $20 instead of splitting it into two discs for $20 each.
Why no builder dash ?? 😦😦
